Big Claims By Abu Malik, ‘Asim is an insecure person’
And now, another Bigg Boss 13 contestant, Abu Malik, shared more details about the breakup. In an interview with Times Now, Abu revealed that he learned about Asim and Himanshi’s separation at Arti Singh’s wedding.
He claimed that Asim was ‘very controlling’ over Himanshi, dictating what she should and shouldn’t do, which created problems in their relationship. Abu described Asim as an ‘insecure person’ with a tendency to hold grudges and make situations unpleasant.
“It feels like he was imposing on what she should and shouldn’t do. That was the reason and I heard about it at Arti’s wedding. Himanshi has a career to build. Actors have to give each other space. Between Asim and Himanshi, space was evidently not there. She must have walked out of the relationship,” Abu Malik told the news portal.
